Dramatic footage from Brisbanes CBD as dozens of boats and other items smash into bridges over the Brisbane River. Myself and Bradley Ambrose are in Brisbane covered this unfolding disaster.
Nice footage Geoff but at no point did they forecast the river to reach the highest level since records began which incidentally was in 1841 when the port gauge reached a staggering 8.5 metres. I think the highest level forecast for this event was 5.5m or the equivalent of the 1974 floods. Had it continued raining for another 3-4 hours though on Tuesday evening and Wivenhoe Dam levels hit the first emergency spillway it could well have been so much worse.
i thought toowoomba was a crazy place 2 live in wen it comes 2 flash floods bcuz of wut happened 2 jordan rice and his mum but seems 2 me that all of QLD isnt safe wen flash floods come thru and terrorize our state
Geoff and the team, what would we without you. Keep up the great footage, stay safe
WOW!!
AMAZING footage!! thanks for the upload :D
Nice camera too! That spider at the end looked scary haha
In Germany we nearly have the same problems at this time. But yours look more dramatic. Very good video.
Great video. I had no idea what was going on. The end of my street was under. It was surreal. So lucky it didn't get worse.
Great video mate, great footage!!!!!
The drydock is not so dry any more...
Walking in floodwater is a bad idea. Bio hazard soup !
Brisbane have a subway?All those flooded basements,what a mess
Wish i couldve saved just one of those boats.. what a loss
Is no one gonna talk about how this was uploaded a day before it happened?

Are you serious? "They were asking for it"
My mates are in this just chilling at 3:20 hahaha :D
My nan lives in Fairfield her house went under aswell we found a meter bull shark behind her lounge during the clean up
One can't help thinking - when is it going to happen the next time? Probably sooner than we think, if history is a guide (which it of course is)..
It’s happening rn
that is cause they building in the midle of the river..
Compelling shots at 3.18
All the people starting at 2:27 look like zombies.
That sucks, has this ever happens before?
Oh God...the poisonous spiders and snakes of Australia! All in that water!
I think they had bigger problems than attacking humans
Say hello to Gerry Leforsky he is at Brisbane U. Probably at the chem labs now.
